Davis®
Young Learner Program A Great Start for Children Under the Age
of 8
The Best Start
Young learners deserve the best start we can give them. Strong
research evidence suggests that children who are exposed to Davis
methods at K-3 age benefit in the following ways:
 |
- They are
highly unlikely to develop a learning difficulty.
- They are
significantly more likely to qualify for gifted program
referrals.
- Their basic
word recognition will be among the highest levels expected
for their age group.
|
The Davis™ Reading Program for Young Learners
is an individualized learning enhancement program with a licensed
and trained Davis Facilitator. Its mission is to give children
aged 5-8 the best possible start at the outset
of their learning career. Its aims are:
- to provide lifelong learning skills to
younger children through a partnership between Facilitator,
child and parent(s)
- to give one or both of the child's parents,
or a support person, sufficient confidence and skill to
continue working with the Davis Young Learner's Kit after
the program
- to provide children with the conceptual
skills needed to develop reading fluency and comprehension
|
|
The Davis™ Reading Program for Young Learners provides important
tools to beginning readers. Through the unique partnership philosophy
of the program, parents or other family members gain the skills
needed to provide the child with ongoing quality support. Typically,
the Facilitator will schedule 25-30 hours of time with the student.
